TIPS FOR SCHOOL
Participate:
-Engage the teacher in conversation.
-Raise your hand for every question.
-Start a discussion.
-The more engaged you are with the lecture, the more you’ll want to concentrate on it.
Get a Good Night’s Sleep:
For maximum concentration, make sure you’ve slept at least eight hours. Your concentration will be almost gone if you’re not fully rested for class. Get some shut-eye!
Change It Up:
If you can feel your ability to concentrate starting to slip, then change something. Get a new pen from your bag. Cross your other leg. Stretch. Tense and flex your muscles. Take a moment to give yourself a brief break from the monotony. You’ll be surprised how well this works to get you back on track.
Take Good Notes:
Get your pen working to keep your mind focused.
Sit Near The Front:
Sitting in the front of the class helps to concentrate because it takes away any distractions (whispers, texters, coughers, etc) in front of you.
